Kings Tor stands high above the Walkham Valley, offering fine views north towards Cox Tor and the Staple Tors. The tor has two rock basins, one on the summit and another to the west. The disused Princetown Railway loops around its base, and four quarries are visible in the surrounding area. It's a solid, granite formation with a clear vantage point over the valley and surrounding tors.

Dartefacts is a database of Dartmoor sites with far more close-up detail than we can show here, and it is the best place to go deeper. Dartefacts is free to use, and nobody has to pay to look things up. If you want more, a yearly subscription adds 10-figure grid references, map zoom down to 1:25,000 and lists to tick off the places you have visited, and it helps keep the site going. We would encourage you to subscribe.
